Handcrafted graphite and fiberglass fly rods: Photography
http://tightloopflyrods.blogspot.com/p/photography.html
Flyfishing is an inspiring sport, and, as an enthuziast photographer of undisturbed nature and hidden spots, I am in a constant search for "secret", most stunning and wildest places. Here it's not the fish that I'm after. The flyfishing photography of our days has come a long way and it is probably the most modern way of expressing the magic of our sport. This is a work in progress and a continuous search and many times a team work. There is always something new to experience or ways to improve. I guess ...

Thursday, July 24, 2014. Below are photos of my already famous and so called "Red Creek" from my two day fishing trip I did with a couple of good friends and my girlfriend. But that's a project we have in mind to get better at in the closest future. Hope you'll enjoy the photos almost all of them made by my girl, and just I can't thank her enough for joining me in this trip. I guess I'm a lucky bastard :). Cheers and good fishing everyone!

Sunday, July 5, 2015. A short venture into Retezat National Park wilderness. Honestly, you can't beat Retezat area for wild, freestone rivers anywhere in Europe. Very technical, gin clear water. Fished a single dry, sight nymphing and high sticked on my trusty TXL rod. Almost the same fun as with light glass. More to come this summer. Here are a few pictures.

Handcrafted graphite and fiberglass fly rods: August 2014
http://tightloopflyrods.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 25, 2014. Sage Circa 8'9" #5. I have been thinking and dreaming about this one for months. This might just be one of the most amazing five weight by Sage ever. I made a ton of pictures (again! But I just can't get enough of this beauty. I have test casted this sweet Circa rod for a few hours with the Gold wf5 and it blew me away. I could load the rod in 10-20' perfectly or lay out 70'-80' casts with a relaxed stroke easy. Blank: Sage Circa 589-4. Handle: Flor grade cigar cork. Linkuri de î...

Handcrafted graphite and fiberglass fly rods: November 2014
http://tightloopflyrods.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 22, 2014. Swift Epic 480 Mocha. A heirloom quality Epic mocha fiberglass rod appointed with contrasting dark wraps, stabilized mortised redwood burl wood insert and fine black anodized uplocking hardware. The bright chrome guides and nickel silver amber agate give a little more life to the overall dark tones and I think it's just perfect. This rod's going all the way down to Aussie. Thanks for looking! Linkuri de întoarcere către această postare. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Eventually,...

Handcrafted graphite and fiberglass fly rods: May 2015
http://tightloopflyrods.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2015. This is the first spey rod to come out of my shop. A fifteen foot ten weight that will bend in the Kola peninsula on "silver". As for the fittings, I kept it classy. Again. This beauty of a rod features an exquisite Bellinger nickel silver reel seat with stabilized maple wood insert. With the garnet thread wraps I think it's as classy as it can be. "Old school" brown Sage signature wraps make this badass TCX build (Dave Lewis inspired) one-of-a-kind. Thursday, May 21, 2015. I eat, d...
